Amazing and delicious
I have tried about 10 soups so far from this book, and all of them have been fantastic!! The instructions are easy to follow and the pictures make you salivate in anticipation. A must have for any soup lover!!!

Soup's on!!!
This and the other "500 ____" books are fun. I'd recommend them as a cute set for a graduation or shower gift. Not too sophisticated...
